The sessions also included a presentation of the auditing mechanisms of the FTA with practical examples on the application of VAT, taxable supplies, and the calculation of outputs on supplies as well as mandatory and voluntary registration. Discussions were held on the supplies with zero rate in the UAE, which are not subject to VAT, income tax deductible on related expenses, as well as exempting supplies to recover input tax. Participants were also introduced to the impact of VAT on government entities, and the independent activities carried out by government entities that fall outside the scope of VAT.
